What

Cycle to Farm® is a popular series of organized group rides that encourage and promote local food, local farms and agritourism by bicycle in the South. In 2014, rides are offered in 4 locations -- Chapel Hill and Greenville are new for 2014. Riders experience a beautiful (but challenging) metric century route, enjoy tasty food samples at "Farm Stops" hosted by local farms, and purchase products at each Farm. Cycle to Farm staff collect the purchases and transport them by vehicle back to the Start/Finish, where riders return for a farm-to-table meal with the community at the Fabulous After Party. Cycle to Farm has a non-profit partner in each of the 4 locations, which receives most of the net profits of the event. We also view the involvement of volunteers and sponsors as an opportunity to build community among foodies, athletes, and local farmers. We encourage them all to join us at the Fabulous After Party in each location. New Belgium is proud to once again be a sponsorship partner of Cycle to Farm.
